Kwamecron:Lol... tomorrow's nah, you'd say you were deceived. People, see him o! |
Baronthecelebri:Because he wanted to fold his hands nah. ![]() |
Thermodynamics:That's because we all love money. Men do scam people, kill people, etc all for money. You think they'd think twice before sleeping with people if they had vaginas? Lol... no, I don't think so. |
Quite unique. Sure that isn't vitiligo? If it is,it might still expand. |
Thermodynamics:You see, bro. I won't type a long response because your argument is already self destructive. Men are visual. I can't keep showing cols water when you're thirsty and expect you not to drink. Your own desires are natural, so I shouldn't hold you accountable. But you want to display money in front of women and expect them not to fall for the bait because they're supposed to power beings who can reject cold water even when they're thirsty, right? OK, you win. I have nothing more to add. |
Fahvvy:If I understood you correctly, you also don't see the essence of this thread, right? You also don't see why people should lament about women sleeping around, right? Because, it is the way the world is. Well, I wouldn't exactly argue against that because I also do not agree with the one sided lamentations myself. However, I don't believe on the ideology of "it is what it is" or "that is the way the world is". I believe people only say that when they're not really eager to see any change probably because the current status quo favours them. And no, this is not an argument in support of women (because I can't possibly support women that broke-shame anyone at all). It is rather an argument in support of the possibility of a better society. History has taught us that society and mindset are very much subject to change. The process is slow but sure. Whether it changes for better or for worse is a matter how we steer it. That is why you hear expressions like "girls of nowadays". The word "nowadays" means something has changed. And whether you do anything or not, things will keep changing. So why not influence the change? The idea of living things to fate is an defeatist's mindset. The fact that we can't have an ideal situation doesn't mean we should stop striving for a better one. If that was the case, we wouldn't have churches today. The fact that women in some countries are more dependent than women in some other countries is enough to tell us that a good deal of this issue exist at the societal level and that means they're subject to change. All hand being on deck is simply an idiomatic expression to explain that it is a shared responsibility between between both genders (and I'm glad you're not arguing against this). However, it doesn't literally mean that every single individual must be involved. Today, women and men work together to fund the family in some countries, and they both share house chores, etc. Of course, it's still not balanced but compared to how things used to be (even in the West), that's a big change. In Africa, a man cooking is called "simping", but at the end, it's just a mindset subject to change. And guess what, it is already changing. There are factors that influence these things. It is difficult to change an adult's lifestyle but we can start from the root, the kids. That is exactly how other places like the West and the Middle East approach issues that have to do with mindset. The kids are the future society, so target them. We call it brainwashing when we think it's not good, but that's aside the point. The point is, if it works for negative indoctrination, it can also work for positive indoctrination. The difference in mindset between men and women starts from the way we treat our kids at home, the things we tell them and the things we let them get away with or restrict them from doing. These kids are the society of tomorrow and when they share a common mindset of what is wrong or right, things will definitely shift towards better. As parents, we sometimes have this picture of what a woman should be (beautiful, respectful and homely). We usually end up modeling our girls to be just that while we encourage our boys to go and explore. We hardly care about what the boys wear, whom they're talking to, etc. Then we create promiscuous boys and decent girls, throw into the same society and expect the girls to bear the burden of maintaining morality alone. Now that it's obvious this model ain't working, the solution is to revisit the drawing board which is our parenting style. Hold our boy child as accountable as we hold our girl child. And let them help each other bear the burden. If we talk about this, do it and promote it, the change will begin with us. Our girls will have a higher sense of responsibility. Our boys will have a better sense of morality. And the pressure on everyone will reduce. |
Lol... but Dino, Atiku's spokesperson, said Tinubu lives on drugs. |
Are we really having this discussion? What else would you do if not to tell your HR? |
Thermodynamics:You're a virgin, you can keep looking for one. That's valid and I really hope you find one. But to be practical, this argument we're having, regardless of who wins, will not change anything. If I say yes, a woman's virtue is more important, and then y'all keep writing epistles about the decline in morality, nothing changes. That is because 1 + 1 can never be 3. It is impossible for men to be sleeping around and the society will be full of virtuous virgins. So regardless of how you look at it, it is still give and take. It is also impossible for the market to have an extremely high demand and suppliers will not supply. That's not how the world works (borrowing my friend's expression, lol). You have to manage your expectations just the way you expect me to manage mine. The only practical solution is for men to be held as accountable as we hold the women. Anything other than this is all talk. You guys don't like it when women request for money. You write threads about wives not bringing anything to the table. But from this your post, it's obvious you don't want that to change and that makes me wonder why you then complain. It's almost as if you guys are more interested in winning arguments than changing things, and that's why you just say whatever will support you at the moment. Sir, humans will do anything for money. This is not a gender thing. We have guys who do yahoo, rituals, armed robbery, etc. You think these guys would think twice before doing prostitution if they had vaginas? Didn't you see the thread about Mandigo men from the Gambia sleeping with old white women? It is not good for women to sleep around, but the moment you justify men sleeping around is the moment you defeat your own argument by yourself. |
SavageMajor:Thank you. I'll travel to Nigeria to get mine. |
Lol... James has been seeking Bob's attention for years. Sometimes, he dragged him and sometimes, he praised him. All this while, Bob refused to acknowledge him. This must be a breakthrough for him. A milestone in his cross-dressing career. I still remember how the Nigerian police made him famous; talk about making lemonade with lemons. |
Karlifate:Well, since it's not standard, you can't really fault anyone. Besides in the kinky world, it means "born to worship" and that is used to describe a sub. |
Haha... this could surely kill the King. ![]() |
Lol... bro saw an incomplete diagram and decided to help. They should pay him for going the extra mile. ![]() |
This is sad. I mean, God help Tinubu if he's ordained to be our president, but if this is the only reason he's supporting him, it's really sad. |
Thermodynamics:You are absolutely right. You don't deserve that at an individual level. But the point is, it's a collective bargain. Men sleep with women. The only plausible outcome is that men would like marry women that other men have slept with. Expecting any other thing is illogical. Of course, they're virgin girls out there, but they are as rare as you, my friend. And many of them might end up with undeserving men. Like I said, it's a collective bargain. For there to be a change, both genders must key in to the single partner mindset at least. |
Jashub:Sir, victim blaming is very easy, but trust me, this could happen to anyone. Market research tells you more about the price to expect certain items to go for, and like I said, 30k is not a bad price for a second-hand television. |
Fahvvy:The entirety of your argument revolves around "it's not fair, but it is the world we live in". You've come to accept what men do as the nature of men. You don't think it can be changed or, to be frank, you don't really want it to change because it would cut short on your freedom. So you make your side constant while trying to change a dependent variable. Any science or even social science student would tell you it's a waste of time. It only helps you win arguments but it doesn't bring about any practical change. One could say that women sleeping around is not fair but it's also the world we live in. However, the truth is, there's nothing like "the world we live". Everything is subject to change. You can't keep doing the same thing over and over again and expect a different result. In our homes, we monitor how the girls dress, how they talk or walk, who they talk to, how they cook, etc., and prepare them primarily to be good dependent humans. We give the boys the laissez-faire to virtually anything. Then at the end, we throw these same boys and girls into the same society and expect one gender to keep saying "no" because, even though it is not fair, it is the world we live in. What you fail to realize is that humans doing anything for money is not fair but that's also the world we live in. And no, I don't need to create threads about women that broke-shame men, we already have a lot of that created by my fellow men. Seriously, if you're really okay with the world we live in, what then is the essence of this thread? If figuring out a way to live with it is the only option, why are we having this chat? This thread exists because we know that these things could change. The only problem is that we're selective about what we want to change. We want to have it all. We want to keep sleeping around with girls and we also want these girls to be decent virgins so we can marry them later. I don't think anything describes eating one's cake and still having it more that this. This is not a girl vs boy thing. It only becomes that when one gender is not ready to put in the work. But the moment we realize it's our collective responsibility to change things, then all hands will be on deck to reduce prostitution, and believe me, it'll also eliminate broke-shaming men. |
Every day, you guys create threads lamenting about all your women sleeping around. You write epistles upon epistles about girls of nowadays. Meanwhile, you shy away from holding each other accountable. When anyone speaks up about men sleeping around, you attack the person cause to you, that's a threat to your masculine freedom. After all, it is in man's nature to seek women for sex. That's a narrative you use to excuse your side while calling out the opposite gender. What you fail to realize is that even if you quote and argue with me till you feel you've won the argument, nothing is going to change. You'd still come back tomorrow to more epistles. I mean, if this idea of calling out women and shouting "to marry these days hein!" was a solution, things would have changed by now. This is not blaming men for the promiscuity of women. This is holding men as accountable as we hold women. Men sleeping around and even coming online to boast about it while sexualizing everything and then turning around to criticize the women they sleep with or cry about the rarity of wife material is the most hypocritical thing ever. Where do you expect the good ones to come from? Who do you expect to marry the one's you've slept with? Me? Don't you find it extremely funny that you lot expect one gender to bear the burden of maintaining morality in your society? You simply cannot raise good girls in a society full of bad boys. It is not practical. Until you change your orientation, your girls will remain the way they are. Nobody likes suffering. With the way boys do yahoo now, they'd do worse if they had vaginas. |
Jashub:That's a quick conclusion. She probably thought she was getting a fairly used television which could go for that price. |
SuRamzy:I'm not the OP. He is the one looking for people. Ask him to link you up. I only answered your question about the meaning. |
Lol... that's a python bro. |
SuRamzy:Business dependent social media. It's a form of campaign or awareness program in which the participants get paid for promoting a business, a candidate, an ideology or a narrative. |
This right here is the problem. The school bags aren't heavy. Why not just let the girls carry their own bags? They start early to create this dependence mindset in children so they can come back tomorrow to women can't do anything on thier own. |
This is more than a red flag. It's a red tarpaulin. |
The title of this thread made think today was Friday. Lol. |
Lol... so because Jesus is our Lord, the English word should now lose its meaning? Well, Jesus is also our father, why do you still call your earthly parent "father"? Jesus is also our king, why do you call the ruler of your hometown "king"? Dude, the word "lord" means someone or something having power, authority, or influence; a master or ruler. Anybody can be a lord in different situations. Don't you call the owner of the house in which you live "landlord"? You didn't see that one, it's the bishop you saw. Lol |
jesmond3945: BentizilL:I guess China and Russia were also forced to send condolences or else the countries will be shut down, right? I'm sure the US was forced to hang their flags halfway or get shutdown. Even Nigeria was forced to do same, right? Apparently, you don't know what is called social responsibility. Pray tell, where did you read that businesses will be shut down if they refuse to mourn the queen? Which business owner have you talked with and they told you they were forced to put up an image of the queen? The queen's image is all over public properties like train stations and others. International companies like Google, etc also put up her image. Advertising firms and other big organizations in the UK are also doing the same all because it's good for their image. They're simply jumping in on the trend. They are mourning the queen cause it's good for thier PR, dude. It is a major event in the country and this is exactly what is expected. They're not doing it for the queen, they're doing it as a sign of respect to the country and because not doing so is bad for business. Have ever had a business outfit before? You guys just stay in Nigeria, cook up things and start wriggling. As for North Korea, a system of government in which one person makes the law is called what? Democracy? Please, dude. |
10mobile:And you think calling yourself a monkey is a step in the right direction.... lol. |
I didn't know this. I'm hearing it for the first time and I'll definitely read more about it. Abroad is a vague term though. |
A few posts by people whose nationality you can't really confirm is what you're riding on to push your anti-west narrative? Even without being told, do you think it's wise for a bank in England for example, not to put up a picture to mourn the queen? Even if the owner of the business does not like the queen, it's the logical thing to do out of respect for his employees and customers who do. If you disregard the country to that extent, you're canceling yourself. It is not mandatory to mourn the queen, however, businesses know it is in thier best interest to show respect to the lady who has occupied the thrown for 70 years. It's a matter of PR. If the market you're targeting takes the queen seriously, you are obliged to, at least, pretend to take her seriously as well: BUS101. I'm very sure the person that compared the situation to North Korea is not from England and he's extremely dumb. He doesn't even know what dictatorship is. The queen couldn't influence dictatorship when she was alive, it's in death she's doing that? It's natural for some people not to like how things are done by thier leaders, but the comparison to N. Korea is overreaching. The royal family, at this point, is merely a cultural heritage protected by the country (and others where they're still recognized) as a "living history". Asides from being a live demonstration of what things used to be like, it also serves to maintain the unique classic nature of England which, in addition to thier architecture and accent, makes the country stand out in the West. But then again, it's expensive to maintain and only a family gets to enjoy the royal privileges. Some people are not happy with this and their concerns are valid. However, this has always been the case even before the queen's death. |
plaindealer:Jeez! You don't even know my tribe. I thought we were having a conversation but this seems to be more of a tribal war for you. And that explans why you're not able to see beyond that. The lady has other tweets were she cited colonization as part of her grief, so when you say "stay on topic", you actually mean "make it all about tribe and ignore every other thing". So what's the ideal conclusion according to you? Igbo people are extremely wicked and bitter people and have no reason to be upset about the Biafran war? Lol... OK, dear, you're correct. That's fine. I've been on this platform long enough to know that any conversation charged by tribal dichotomy does not lead anywhere. I usually stay away from that. I only quoted cause your first comment seemed like a social discussion. Good evening. |

chai, women.
behind your ideals and I'll gladly jump on it, but until then, I will navigate my life and that of my family in a way that yields maximum profits from this messed up world
